Leaks suggest next Galaxy Note without an edged sibling

Samsung tops world super premium smartphone market with their devices like the Galaxy S6, S6 Edge, Note 4 Edge, and the A7. In addition to the list their upcoming model Samsung Galaxy Note is still in question out on an edged variant for the next Note device. The latest report suggested that the device probably announce at the IFA expo.

Last year, the Note 4 came out along with a rather unexpected sibling – the Galaxy Note Edge. A lot has already been said about the possibility of a successor, but new rumors now state that such a device is highly unlikely. It is worth noting, however, that this does not disrupt the future of the legendary Note series and the next one should come right on que.

Frankly, when you think about it, everything seems to hint that the Note Edge is a one-off device. It came out at the height of the curved screen hype and was quite successful in showcasing the new technology’s capabilities. However, its curve is quite different from the one on the S6 edge and represents a slightly different design approach – employing what is essentially a separate screen on the side. Samsung seems to have gone in another direction since, so, we don’t really expect to see anything quite like the Note edge any time soon.

Also, the device itself wasn’t really mass-produced or mass-marketed and only released in few select markets. If nothing else, the pure fact that it is named the Galaxy Note Edge, lacking any numbers, breaks it away from the standard Samsung naming convention.

Even if the Note 5 arrives without any major plot twist, rumors still suggest that it is going to be one amazing device with a 5.89-inch UHD display, an Exynos 7422 chipset, 4100 mAh battery and all the productivity goodies the Note series offers.
